    Every time I minimize Vegas, I can not bring it back up witch means I either have to open Vegas again or restart my computer. Has this happened to any one else before. I’m using Windows Vista and I’m also using Vegas Pro 8.

    Sorry, never had that experience before with Vegas,
    but with other applications….Normally i run the
    disc check utility to clear out the cobwebs (start
    run-type in chkdsk c:/f then restart the pc)
    or i completely re-install the software all together.

    Will that interrupt any of the projects I have in Vegas.

    It wont interrupt anything if you run the check disc utility.
    And you can try reinstalling by using the maintenance wizard
    by going to your c:/program files and to the sony setup folder,
    and opening the vegas # folder you then click on the icon named
    vegas80_enu nothing either will be interrupted here…but if this doesn’t work a complete reinstall of Vegas
    is what you will have to do

    It may be possible that it’s simply re-opening your files. Go to Options – Preferences and turn off the “Close media files when not the active application” option and then see how it works.

    Use the Task Manager to make sure Vegas is still running, and you can click on “Switch To” to restore it.
